fischer is introducing its first universal injection mortar with an evaluated ETA service life of 100 years in concrete with the FIS V Plus. Its system components offer a wide range of applications.
fischer offers a wide range of injection systems for fastening high loads, a portfolio it has recently expanded with the launch of its first injection mortar with a patented formula entirely free of hazard labels. In addition to an ETA assessment that validates a service life of more than 100 years in concrete, the latest generation of fischer universal mortars FIS V Plus also offers the benefit of a high bond strength in concrete and a wide range of applications. It can also be used with low edge and axial spacing.
FIS V Plus applications include fastenings in concrete and all conventional solid and perforated bricks, post-installed rebar connections, water-filled drill holes as well as seismic applications in performance categories C1 and C2. fischer insists this injection mortar is the safe choice in the event of fire, certified with a fire resistance class R120.
The hazard-label-free formula of FIS V Zero guarantees the protection of people and planet. fischer used a patented, new curing system for the first time with the FIS V Zero mortar in order to achieve this. No peroxides are used during this process, meaning there is no need for any hazard labels. Combined with the use of non-hazardous raw materials, this mechanism means that the FIS V Zero does not require hazard labels even under the strict stipulations of the EU’s current CLP chemical regulation. As a result, users can process the injection mortar without protective measures and safety equipment.
Used cartridges can be disposed of in the usual household waste, avoiding the costly disposal of hazardous waste. Unlike other injection mortars, FIS V Zero does not require separate packaging and shipping, which saves packaging materials and reduces transport.
